I have been so busy getting back to work and everything that I haven't written anything in a while.

It's been about 3 1/2 weeks since my surgery, so far I am doing pretty good.  I am down 23 pounds so far. I get my first fill on 11/20 and I am looking forward to that.  I have been dieting and it's really hard some days and really easy other days.  I want to start walking more but honestly with work, school, and cheerleading it is really difficult for me to find time for that. I am hoping to find a walking partner so that we can MAKE each other go.  Anyway, my incisions are all pretty much healed and I am feeling better and am pleased with what I have lost so far. I know it will slow down soon but it's a good start. 

Today is day 6. I woke up feeling much better this morning.  I actually slept most of the night. That's the first time since surgery.Until last night I had been waking up numerous times during the night. It's also supposed to be sunny today so hopefully I can go out and walk. The port incision is really the only one that is still a little tender and that's only when I turn a particular way.  This surgery was breeze. I am down 10.8 pounds and although I know that will slow down and I may even gain a couple pounds back when I start on solids; it has been a huge motivator. I have more energy also.

I got  my band on October 3rd, after all the delays and struggles it finally happened.  So far I haven't had any of thos moments of regret or anything.  I had an easy surgery, woke up easily in the recovery room, etc. I am home now and doing fine.  My wonderful husband helps me a lot I am actually spoiled by him!!  I am still on pain meds which make me very loopy so I will blog more later.
